Chilling winds blow through my soul.
Shadows smother my ray of light.
The demons follow me around.
Lurking there just out of sight.

Shadows smother my ray of light.
Dreams of unpleasant memories.
Lurking there just out of sight.
Flowing through pen to poetry.

Dreams of unpleasant memories.
Things that frighten the child inside.
Flowing through pen to poetry.
In this nightmare there’s no place to hide.

Things that frighten the child inside.
Visions of hands reaching out from the dark.
In this nightmare there’s no place to hide.
The reality of this is cold and its stark..

Visions of hands reaching out from the dark.
Lurking there just out of sight.
The reality of this is cold and its stark.
Shadows smother my ray of light.

Terrifying to a child, the Dark truly mimics the womb.

Darkness suits you well, Lucie. You should hang out here more often.
